Wolf in Macedonia: North Macedonia's rugged, mountainous landscape has mirrored its turbulent history, witnessing the rise and fall of empires and the struggle of its people for independence, marked by conflict, occupation, and a complex journey towards nationhood.

With terrain more mountainous than Switzerland, North Macedonia’s rugged terrain, characterized by towering mountains and deep valleys, provides an ideal habitat for wolves. These apex predators pose a significant threat to livestock, particularly in remote pastoral areas, where they prey on sheep, goats, and cattle. Because of their significant population and habits, wolf hunting is both legal and popular in North Macedonia.

This adventure is a six night, three hunting day, and two tour day trip for two hunters or one hunter and one observer for the Macedonian wolf. Wolf hunting in Macedonia is usually successful because of the extremely high concentration of wolves. The hunt is conducted at night from blinds. A driven daytime hunt can be arranged at additional cost if desired. While the success rate on this hunt is 90%, the trophy fee is not included and is paid separately. Optimal dates in November - February, 2025 or 2026.
